This article explores the narration of hadith by the companion Abū Sa‘īd al-Khudrī, one of the teenage
companions of the Prophet Muhammad who transmitted a significant number of prophetic traditions. Using
a library research method and content analysis within the framework of sociological analysis, this study
examines the form of living hadith in the era of the Prophet’s companions. The findings indicate that the
narration of QS. Al-Fātiḥah by Abū Sa‘īd al-Khudrī can be categorized into two typologies: the
informative type, functioning as a means of teaching and understanding the Prophet’s hadith, and the
performative type representing the application of living hadith as a tradition that does not contradict the
Prophet’s teachings. These findings highlight the dynamic nature of hadith transmission among the
companions and the role of living hadith in shaping religious practices. This study contributes to hadith
studies and Islamic sociology by offering an analytical framework integrating textual and social dimensions
of hadith transmission. It demonstrates how sociological approaches can provide deeper insights into the
formation and function of living hadith, thereby enriching contemporary discussions on hadith authenticity
and application in the Muslim community.
